My last bit of Wych Elm that John Hodgson gave me when we visited him last.
4" x 2 1/2" infilled with Silver and finished with Chestnut finishing oil.

Very nice Neil.

Reminds me of a Hawaiian calabash form. Very nice Elm is always a great wood for character

That is beautiful Neil, I love what you have done on the rim leading the eye into the piece. The silver inlay is a nice touch too.
